This super-powerful GaN charger with four ports is 50% off by Taras Buria Some time ago, I reviewed the Cuktech 10, a powerful 100W GaN charger with three ports. It left positive impressions, and since then, it has served me as my primary charger for my phone, watch, laptop, and tablet. Recently, Cuktech offered me the opportunity to take a look at the model 15, a more powerful 140W GaN charger, this time, with four ports. Right now, this powerful charger is available with a massive discount at just $50.99 (with coupon applied). The Cuktech 15 is the same as the Cuktech 10, just slightly bigger, more powerful, and with one extra port. It has a light metallic finish, but overall, it retains the brand's identity and features. The four ports are well spaced out, and the black plastic insert with a cyan rim has a ribbed texture for better grips. Although I live in Europe, Cuktech sent me a US variant with a retractable plug. Okay, I guess. The ability to retract the plug makes it extra portable, which is nice. A high-power 240W five-foot cable is also included. The charger measures 3.11 x 2.56 x 1.26 inches and weighs 0.737 lbs. The Cuktech 15 has four ports: two high-power Type-C ports, one Type-C port with a lower output, and one Type-A port. The first two Type-C ports can deliver a full 140W in single-port mode (PD 3.1 supported), which is nice—no asterisk or caveats here with combined power or something. If you need the full 140W for one device, you get it. Ports are capable of working in the following modes: Single-port Type-C1 / C2: 140W max 5V 2A, 5V 3A, 9V 3A, 11V 6.1A, 12V 3A, 15V 3A, 20V 5A, 28V 5A Type-C3: 33W max 5V 2A, 5V 2.4A, 9V 2A, 12V 1.5A, 11V 3A Type-A: 18W max 5V 2A, 5V 3A, 9V 2A, 12V 1.5A Multi-Port Type-C1 + C2: 100W + 33W or 65W + 65W Type-C1/C2 + Type-C3: 100W + 33W Type-C1/C2 + Type-A: 100W + 18W Type-C1 + Type-C2 + Type-C3: 65W + 60W + 7.5W or 45W + 45W + 18W Type-C1 + Type-C2 + Type-C3 + Type-A: 65W + 60W + 7.5W As you can see, the charger is pretty robust, and it can power two pretty powerful laptops at once and even have enough oomph to charge a smartphone, albeit at a lower power. Another thing worth mentioning is that the Cuktech 15 delivers "clean" power with pretty low pulsations at about 25-50 mV. The rule of thumb is that the lower the pulsations, the better the charger is for your device's battery health. In this area, Cuktech's charger does not disappoint, and they deliver way better results than 100 mV, which is considered a standard for a good charger. Cuktech uses gallium nitride technology, which enables smaller, more powerful and efficient charging. Speaking of efficiency, the charger is rated for 78% average or 64% at a 10% load. When charging at 120W, I received an average of 80-85%, which is good. Of course, when charging at peak power, it gets hot, but not too much. The Cuktech 15 140W usually costs $99.99, which is undoubtedly not cheap. However, right now, you can get it for half the price, which is a very good deal, considering you get a high-quality charger with plenty of ports and very high power output. Like with the Cuktech 10, you cannot go wrong with this one. CUKTECH 15 140W four-port GaN charger - $50.99 | 30% off + a 20% off coupon As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases. -

KDE's KClock is getting Wayland Picture-In-Picture support by David Uzondu The KClock app for KDE Plasma over the years has received a number of updates, like better integration with KRunner and a dedicated background service (kclockd) for managing alarms. Now, it looks like KDE devs want to add something cool: pop-out timers using the new Picture-in-Picture protocol for Wayland. Image: Kai Uwe Broulik This all started from a simple observation. Kai Uwe Broulik, a KDE developer, saw someone using a small timer window during a presentation and thought it was a good idea. The problem is that achieving this kind of "always on top" behavior is handled differently between the old X11 display server and the newer Wayland. With X11, an application could pretty much do whatever it wanted. If a program wanted to draw a drop-down menu, it would just create a borderless window, place it in a specific spot, and grab all user input. Wayland operates on a different philosophy. As Broulik notes, under Wayland, the application describes what it wants, and the compositor gets to decide how to handle it. A drop-down menu is an XDG Popup. The application tells the compositor which button spawned it, and the compositor handles the placement and behavior. This is much more secure and consistent. It also means an application cannot just decide to keep its window on top of everything else. This restriction prevents a web browser from implementing an overlay video player under Wayland. To get around this in a standardized way, a proper Wayland support model for Picture-in-Picture, or PiP, was needed. Enter the xx-pip-v1 protocol. It is a new protocol designed specifically for creating floating PiP windows, and KWin, Plasma's compositor, recently gained support for it. Because it is an experimental protocol, its use is gated behind an environment variable, KWIN_WAYLAND_SUPPORT_XX_PIP_V1. A new protocol is fine for demos, but it needs a real application to find its weaknesses. So Broulik implemented it in KClock. This work allows KClock to offer pop-out timers and even a pop-out stopwatch in a small PiP window. The user could get system-wide options to control where the PiP window appears, or if it appears at all, and have that setting apply to every single application that uses the protocol. You can check out the merge request on GitLab for more technical details about this feature.

Question
andrea.petrucci
Sorry in advance if some of the things written are not very clear: I am Italian, and I do not write very well in English.
I am looking for a backup software that has all the features I listed below.
I tried many backup software (Acronis True Image, SyncBack Pro, Bvckup 2, Duplicates, Uranium Backup, iperius backup, etc ...) but none of them fully satisfied me because he had not all the features required
- Real Time backup – backup a file immediately (not on scheduled basis, although low granularity)
- Versioning support – with smart versioning (not only last XX versions but few versions for older periods and many versions for recent periods) and number of versions selected by user
- Deleted file maintain – deleted file from source must be preserved on destination with same rule used by versioning
- Incremental backup – in versioning I want to keep only change from previous version to minimize space usage
- Delta transfer – transfer to destination only changed bytes
- Usable destination – destination must contain original file not a propretary database, destination must be immediately usable
- Restore at a specified time - it must be possible to set a specified time and I can restore file version in use at that time (also afterwards deleted file)
- Nice interface & easy to use
someone knows a software which has all that is required?
